Benefits of technology

This patent describes a method, device, and computer readable medium for generating an output image based on an input image. The method involves assigning a importance value to each input pixel in the image, and then applying a conversion process to the pixels based on their importance value to create the output image. This application process is responsive to the importance value of each pixel, resulting in a unique and customized output image that is distinct from the original input image. The method and device can be used in a range of applications, such as video production, augmented reality, and medical imaging. The technical effects of this patent include improved image quality, faster processing, and better user experience.

Problems solved by technology

The current industry solutions are basic and not very effective.

Embodiment Construction

[0120]APPENDIX A illustrates a method and system for providing an output image. Especially, a method and device for inhomogeneous 2D texture mapping guided by a feature mask is provided. The mapping can apply one or more conversion processes that are responsive to the feature mask. The mapping preserves some regions of the image, such as foreground objects or other prominent parts. The method is also referred to as the method illustrated in appendix A. This method includes receiving an input frame and a feature mask defined by a rough selection of the features interest map and mapping them (by solving a sparse equation set) to an output frame. If a rigid transformation (rigid mapping) is applied then the featured indicated in the feature mask can undergo (during the mapping) a similarity transformation, possibly at the expense of the background regions in the texture that are allowed to deform more. If a similarity transformation (similarity mapping) is applied then the size of a fe...

Abstract

A method for providing an output image, the method includes: determining an importance value for each input pixels out of multiple input pixels of an input image; applying on each of the multiple input pixels a conversion process that is responsive to the importance value of the input pixel to provide multiple output pixels that form the output image; wherein the input image differs from the output image.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application is a National Phase Application of PCT International Application No. PCT / IL2008 / 000528, entitled “SYSTEM, METHOD AND A COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM FOR PROVIDING AN OUTPUT IMAGE”, International Filing Date Apr. 17, 2008, published on Oct. 30, 2008 as International Publication No. WO 2008 / 129542, which in turn claims priority of U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 60 / 913,301, filed Apr. 23, 2007, both of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]With the recent advent of mobile video displays, and their expected proliferation, there is an acute need to display video on a smaller display than originally intended. Two main issues need to be confronted. The first is the need to change the aspect ratio of a video. The second is the need to down-sample the video whilst maintaining enough resolution of objects-of-interest. An example of the first challenge is the display o...
